Just two month's after the sad passing of Nicholas Courtney we heard today of the news of the passing of the wonderful Elisabeth Sladen.
Renowed for her role as the plucky Sarah Jane Smith, she featured prominantly in Doctor Who and it's spin off's the k-9 adventures and even having her own show The Sarah Jane Adventures. Elisabeth played Sarah Jane alongside the third and fourth doctors, as well as re-ammerging in 10's tenure and even acted along side Matt Smith when he appeared in the Sarah Jane Chronicles.
Sladen's portrayal of Sarah Jane was a wonderfully positive role model for a generation of young geek woman. She was a strong confident career woman, granted a little jeopardy friendly but really it's to be expected. A wonderfully warm actress who will be dearly missed by fans of the show young and old.
Sladen passed from complications arising from her battle with cancer.
